<p>random aside: it would be really nice if Zulip had at least on-hover previews of links. maybe I should try to find an extension that does this</p>

<p>specifically just GitHub would be enough. I don't recognize issues/PRs by number</p>

<p>or with a "permit-list" for which domains</p>

<p>oh hey <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/github-hovercard/">https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/github-hovercard/</a> has a list of domains, I wonder if that's for enterprise GH or will actually allow me to do this</p>

<p>maybe just showing the title of the page you're linking to is a general solution and good enough for your use case</p>

<p>ugh no that's for enterprise github and the extension's design is really bad, it slows down Zulip enough for Firefox to show a warning banner (and it's unusable)</p>

<p>there may be relevant zulip bots too, although I'd prefer for it to avoid an intrusive bunch of information..</p>
